updated patch to use secure-delete useflag as suggested.

Description Jory A. Pratt gentoo-dev 2010-02-01 05:19:21 UTC
We need to provide an option for secure delete, this is how mozilla upstream needs/wants sqlite support to be. Without secure delete ability, we can not continue to move mozilla products in gentoo forward.

SQLITE_SECURE_DELETE

This is not fully tested, should be enough to point things in right direction tho.

secure-delete is a better name as -secure implies insecure for me

Change made to be secure-delete, hope to see this land so I can push an update for xulrunner/firefox to utilize system sqlite again.

Blocker status means: "Blocks development and/or testing work of Gentoo as a whole"
Comment 5 Petteri Räty (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-02-11 18:34:02 UTC
Added. Not on by default because not there in upstream by default and has a performance penalty that servers probably don't want.
